Have just downloaded trial version of Lightroom.

On sale at about £130 has a MB of around 68

Photoshop Elements 4 was less than £60 and has an MB size of around
265. I read somewhere that Lightroom should be used as a plug in to Elements ?
Something does not seem to add up to me ?

Can anyone throw any 'light' on the subject.

Thanks

Peter

Only that there is no correlation between size of the programs and the costs.
Best regards, John

I wouldn't bother using Lightroom as a plugin for another program, use one or the other.

I don't have Elements, I just use lightroom.
Please call me aj,

I use a Pentax K10D, on a MacBook with LightRoom (vers 1.3 + beta 2)

Lightroom is fantastic and I hardly ever open Photoshop any more. Unfortunately it doesn't do HDR or tone mapping (but then neither does my version of Photoshop), which is something I'd live to do.
Regards,
Dan
